Blood, Sand and Tears Part III

[beatrice4ruth]

I am like Commander Robert Marsh. I shake my head in disbelief at your knowledge of the Arab world and at your intricate plot.

I am wondering what lies behind the Commander’s more visceral reaction to Harry. I love how professional Harry and Ruth are. Only a friend would guess that there are deeper feelings between the two of them.

You describe so well the distrust between the delegation and Harry. You capture the inherent duplicity that comes with Harry's position. The devious side of Harry as a spy can be somewhat off-putting, even though we know it is for the protection of the realm.
